Check out our practical and inspiring tips and tricks to design your very own backyard lounge area.

Following a few late snowstorms, spring (finally!) seems to be knocking at our doors. For a lot of us, the arrival of warmer weather almost always means setting up our deck, patio, balcony, or whatever outdoor space we may have. Whether you just recently moved into a new home or have been living in the same house for years, spring means enjoying the outdoors. Hence your outdoor space automatically turns into an extension of your home, making for a second living room or lounge area.
